tanjore paintings

Tanjore painting is an important form of classical south Indian painting, native to the town of Thanjavur (anglicized as Tanjore) in TamilNadu. The art form dates back to about 1600AD, a period when Nayakas of Tanjavur encouraged art, dance, music as well as literature both in Telugu and Tamil. Tanjore Paintings are known for their surface richness, vivid colours and compact composition. Essentially serving as devotional icons, the themes of most of these paintings are Hindu gods and goddesses, and saints as well. Episodes from Hindu tradition are drawn upon as elaboration to the main figure / figures placed in the central section of the picture. Tanjore paintings are in fact panel paintings, done on solid wood planks and hence were also referred to as 'palagai padam'( palagai - wooden plank ; padam- picture) in local parlance. In modern times, these paintings have become a much sought after as souvenir during festive occasions in South India; or as pieces to decorate the walls ; or as collectors' item by art lovers. Tanjore Paintings also serve as an excellent gift which are truly cherished by the connoisseur of art.
